than once, too - but not by the candidates. 16:53:52 "actually it was very organic. i think people looked at the program, and saw that she had not committed, and that's very disappointing, when you have the other two democratic candidates that are here and willing to talk to people. and i think that's very insulting to the people that were here. and i think latinos know that, and i think latinos know whose in their corner, and we'll see that on caucus day." - madeline cano - latino iowan the latino vote a coveted prize... immigration reform a hot issue during saturday's forum. 16:04:01 "as soon as i can, we will provide legal protection to 11 million undocumented people in this country." - sanders 15:00:33 "we need to stop these mindless deportation policies that are ripping families apart." - o'malley many voters today say they came and went with their minds made up. 16:44:30 "yeah, but i really did like martin o'malley. i have nothing to say detrimental about martin o'malley - he's very good." - barbara kalbach - bernie sanders supporter some

was hillary clinton. 16:46:03 "where these people are activists, they're going to vote. they're communities, they're going to caucus. and i think it's a mistake, not to show, if she is a stronger candidate, not to show that to a public like this." - barbara kalbach - bernie sanders supporter 17:01:01 "with clinton nowhere in sight, both o'malley and sanders convincing iowa caucus-goers they deserve some attention, three weeks out. in des moines, reid chandler, channel 13 news." - reid chandler the lowest-polling democratic candidate martin o'malley may not make it to the first debate of the new year. candidates must reach five-percent either nationally or in iowa, new hampshire, or south carolina.. o'malley is only reaching that number in iowa the next debate will take place in charleston, south carolina on january 17 - th. republican candidate marco rubio was interrupted by protestors this morning at a

snow this winter. so one man there applied the "do-it- yourself" concept to make up for the missing snowfall. vanessa murdock has more... natsot: "today is january 6 2016...huntington, long island...." the snow falls thick and steady.... casey morell even busted out the snow blower, to move snow he created. two days ago it covered his driveway and lawn...today...little is left. meanwhile one state over.... drive along 6th avenue in hawthorne new jersey and lawns are emerald green.....until

: "it's awesome being the only house or yard in hawthorne and passaic county that has snow."michael jannicelli says his homemade north pole is a childhood dream come true. : "i had a lady pull over there get out of her car... look both ways run across the street and touch it."wanda guse walked by today and hand to do the : "this is amazing.

(donkey noise) (elephant noise) (mic screech) there's a big difference between making noise... (mic tap) ...and making sense.

(donkey noise) when it comes to social security, we need more than lip service. our next president needs a real plan to keep social security strong. (elephant noise) hey candidates! enough talk. give us a plan. marco rubio thinks it's unfair to criticize him for missing votes. "but i am going to miss votes, i'm running for president." but he's been missing votes for a long time. "one third of all of his missed votes in 2015 were missed before he announced he was running for president." over the last three years, marco rubio has missed more votes... than any other senator. washington politician marco rubio. doesn't show up for work,
